The indian company that builds the KTM puts out more motorcycles per year than any of the map companies,, I think even combined. Better quality too. I don't like it either but its better than china by far..
Bmw was having engines for the 449 and 511 among others manufactured in Taiwan not mainland China. Big difference in quality. I still would not have purchased one. I did have a txc 310, which was all Italian and a nice machine. Bmw ruined husky for sure.

The cool thing about the husky is the embedded graphics, not having graphics peel off or get torn off is a huge plus in my book but that's really all that I like about it, around here I can save 1k and buy a 300xc for the same price(if I were to ever buy one)
